MUGA Development March 2016

Work on the multi use games area (MUGA) started in February 2016 and was completed in March 2016.

The MUGA will enable children between 11-16 years old to play recreational football, netball, basketball and cricket in a purpose built floodlit area.

The design elements of the MUGA were chosen following a consultation in December last year with local schools, including Hednesford Valley High and Staffordshire University Academy, who chose elements such as the skills panels and the colours.

Play Area March 2015

The design of the play area incorporates ideas and view from local schools following a consultation as well as capturing the mining history of the area and the previous history of the athletics track.
